The Lean Aircraft Initiative Report Series;#RP97-02-34
Abstract
Since the rise of the industrial revolution, there are few challenges that compare in scale and scope
with the challenge of implementing lean principles in order to achieve high performance work
systems. This report summarize key insights and learning by representatives from a cross
section of organizations who are on this journey. Specifically, we report on findings from the
first Lean Aircraft Initiative (LAI) Implementation Workshop, which was held on February 5-6, 1997.
The report is not a “cookbook” or a “how to” manual. Rather, it is a summary of the first phase
in a learning process. It is designed to codify lessons learning, facilitate diffusion among people not at the session, and set the stage for further learning about implementation.
